A wish all parents share for their new babies is a full night's sleep—or maybe two, if they're feeling bold! With the name Hypnos, you can speak this hope into the universe every day. Hypnos in Greek mythology is the god of sleep and his Roman counterpart is known as Somnus. His name is said to be the origin of the word "hypnosis." If baby's hypnotic charm has been pre-ordained, consider the name Hypnos to let them revel in their glory.
